Not a one time close .

We're seeking a 2-family house with parking for at least one vehicle and close to public transportation.

I am UC on a NC in home built in 1948 - closing in a few days.

Joining this community was the first step and in my opinion the next step would be making some business cards and start going to REIAs close to you. 

@Kristine Ann  I used the term "traveling medical professionals" in the first week of my first rent-by-the-room/co-living MTR listing while waiting for input from a local real estate attorney on my legal document.

I'm not sure about Houston but make sure you find a great agent who's focused in your area. call agents who list new construction or who closed land purchases and represented people. on my closed transaction list and active listings it's land on the buy side and new construction homes on the sell side. make a spreadsheet, email and call every single one, have 10-15 conversations, meet with 3, pick 1. sales funnel. 

Owner needs to legally serve squatters through the professionals. 

With about 100k to put  down, I don't think I can be anywhere close to cash flow break even (at least not in any market that is driving distance from the Metro DC area). 

Closed sales have jumped by 11.09% year-over-year, reaching 1,402 in April 2024.

@Ben Lin, The two part reinvestment requirement is that in order to defer all tax you must purchase at least as much as your net sale (contract price minus closing costs and commissions).
